The point for me is to have nothing touch them. So I've been wearing sandals, then taking them off so I'm, yes, barefoot. Nobody can see. During the day having them not touch anything is enough. Nightime is another story.

Tramadol: worked very well for a short period of time and then not at all. Vicodin has no effect either. But I seem to be the exception, so don't anyone go by my experience.
So were in the same boat. We work and can't wear sock or shoes. I too have used a wastebasket and cushion. Now I use an old chair that I took the back off of. I can't wear sandals of any kind. Interesting life isn't it working a full time job and not being able to wear shoes.

Sorry I started the thread about Tramadol and I'm now talking shoe's. Sham on me.
